Default Wheel Spacer Suggestions

I was looking into getting wheel spacers (from Eibach), and I was wondering if anyone had them, what would look best (front, rear, or both), and if I should go with 5mm or 15mm. Thanks!

None.

If you are buying wheels, then you should be getting the correct offset so they sit almost flush with the fender and wont rub when the suspension compresses.

If you have stock alloys, then they should be left as is.

If youre really set on getting some, the stock offset is +55mm and an offset of about +40mm will bring the wheels to the fender. You can also measure the distance from the wheel to the fender in millimeters and subtract that from 55 to get the offset you want/need. That measurement will also provide you will the correct thickness spacer.

Eibach would be fine up to about 5mm, but if I were to run spacers, I would get the H&R TRAK+ spacers at ~$60/pair.

Alright, thanks. I'll just stick with the stock, like you suggested. Thanks!
